To make a day of it

Château de Milly-le-Meugon stands in Gennes-Val-de-Loire (Maine-et-Loire), in the Pays de la Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 16th century, 17th century). No visits are on record for this building.

In Gennes-Val-de-Loire, in Maine-et-Loire, this castle site brings together several eras on a single motte: feudal ruins, a Renaissance gate with vermiculated stonework, stables from the 16th and 17th centuries, and a manor house partly rebuilt in the 19th century. The site bears the imprint of the Maillé family, who shaped it through the 16th and 17th centuries before the main residence was partially rebuilt around 1835. Still inhabited, the château is best seen from its surroundings and enclosure walls.
